The $4 million reduction in pay for the 2015 season was a much-discussed storyline last offseason. In the end, Manning didn't end up losing a dollar.

NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported that with the win in Super Bowl 50 and playing 70 percent of the snaps, Manning earned a $2 million bonus off his contract. Coupled with the $2 million he earned for the AFC Championship win, that puts his season salary at $19 million, exactly what it would've been before his pay cut.
